Culture and Identity

How food, photographs and books inform our identity from Jerusalem to Hargeisa and Paris

With Tina Daheley.

From Jerusalem the essayist and biographer Adina Hoffman explores what her local food market can tell us about the cultural identity of the city. As photographs become easier than ever to take and store, how important are they for shaping our memories and sense of self, and can photojournalism change minds about the migrant crisis? And from Paris, why Ernest Hemingway's novel A Moveable Feast became a symbol of Parisian identity after last month's attacks.
